Debra Rachel Brown, 69

It is with heavy hearts and many tears that we, the Brown family, wish to inform you of our beloved mother's passing on Dec. 6, 2025. She was surrounded by loved ones at home when she passed early in the morning, looking out on her favorite view. 

Debra Rachel Brown (Richardson), 69, of Sandpoint, Idaho, was born in Fullerton, Calif., on July 21, 1956. 

She is survived by her husband, Richard Brown; and four children, Eric, Andy, Brian and Kevin; their spouses, Faith, Michelle and Brittany; along with her many grandchildren, Mikel, Joseph, Aiyanna, Delaney, James, Kinsley and Easton. She even had two great-grandchildren, Mathew and Lucas; and yet still there are many, many more that should be listed who would call her mom or grandma, and we, the Brown family love you all as our own.

Debbie attended Sandpoint High School, where she met her husband and life partner. They were married for 52 years. Each year filled with love, celebration and many trials as all long-lasting loves are. 

Debbie will forever be remembered by countless people in Sandpoint through her many years of work at the schools and knitting shop. It's hard to find someone not touched by Debbie's loving heart and warm smile. She will be forever missed and never forgotten.

Family and friends are invited to sign Debbie’s online guest book at coffeltfuneral.com.

Arrangements are under the care of Coffelt Funeral Service.
